So a small snippet of an Erasermic Soulmate AU in which when you can't see colors until you meet your soulmates! (This was also slightly based off an idea that @o0fyuu0ouu0o once talked about on the bird app in which Shouta was naturally colorblind.)
Hizashi goes to the library the day before going back to school and finds a book that describes color for those who've found their soulmates. He sits with it in a corner and traces over the colors and the descriptions next to them, along with the various examples of and pictures of what might be those colors in awe for hours.
(Sundays are usually days in which his family spends doing their own thing, and occasionally they'll let him have the day to himself so long as he's in his room by curfew and doesn't embarrass the family in any way. Sitting in the library is usually what Hizashi ends up doing.)
He looks in the mirror after that, taking the book with him into the library restroom (one of the librarians seeing the title with a knowing eye and letting him). He stares at the pages and then looks at his eyes, the barely there spots on his face, his tightly bound hair.
Green eyes, with darker green rings.
Light brown freckles, so light one can barely see them.
Yellow...no, blonde hair, like wheat or even sunshine.
Hizashi stares at himself for a long time. What does his soulmate think of the way he looks? Does he like the different colors of him? Is it better than the different shades of grey he was before? Hizashi didn't realize he had freckles until he could see color, so maybe... But not everyone likes freckles, so what if - what if that's why his soulmate wasn't there to talk to him after their fight in the Sports Festival?
What if he didn't like his colors?
Hizashi slams the books closed and hurries out of the restroom, leaving the book on a table before rushing out of the library.

Been having a weird time waking up (small panic attack and body aches) while my brain is bombarding me with fic ideas (if it wants them so badly then it should LET ME WRITE THEM TO COMPLETION AND PUBLISHING but i digress)
Including a drawfee moment inspired one that im tapping the general idea out here bc it might not ever make it to the page otherwise and it keeps rattling in my head and has been for over a month so
We're in s2. But different. Slightly, at least. Stede's still brought Ed back onboard after barely a day of him being gone (if that), and suggestions are flying for how to help everyone feel more comfortable together.
Including, at Stede's insistence, Drawing Lessons with Lucius.
It's very clear, as he directs them in their sketching, that they're drawing something that has Ed's head/face, like the rest of Lucius' current sketches, but perhaps the best/worst of the entire situation
Is Ed, in his punishment suit and bell, at the end of the table, attempting to sketch. Not doing badly at all, actually. Which is both fine and not fine for poor Lucius, who just really wishes he wasn't this close to Ed physically at all rn
And it builds and builds until he's jumping any time anyone so much as clears their throat, and then.
Ed shows confusion at the next instruction. It's slightly unusual, or seems that way at least, for the current drawing.
Cut to Lucius leaning down to Ed, and directly in his ear asking, hissing with barely held back frustration over ALL OF IT because fucking christ he TOLD Stede he wasn't ready for something like this let alone also involving Ed:
"Do you know what a rectangle is?!"
(relevant animation of this Drawfee bit can be found here, for context of some kind lmao. The link should start it right at the beginning of the right clip, but if it doesn't, then it starts at 1:10 in this video:
)
Idk what else to pad this idea with to attempt to make it a full fic, bc it feels like the next thing to happen is gonna be Ed and Lucius tackling each other and not in a sexy fun way
but I do absolutely have the next bit present in my head of like. Archie gently saying she does know what a rectangle is, but if anyone else is having trouble that's okay, maybe they can all share their progress while they wait for Teacher (Lucius) to be ready again; she's trying so hard to help hold the vibe together, showing off her lovely sketch in progress while Ed and Lucius tumble in the background (they're not really fighting, just sort of grappling. They don't actually want to hurt one another, but they're also not getting the Emotions out any other way so. Awkward slightly threatening grapple with each other while Stede lets Archie take over the sketching session, "you guys wanna draw a snake with Ed's face? I can teach you that, and it doesn't even involve any rectangles!" and a cheer goes up from them all.)

" a quirk ? oh , no , i don't have one of those . " the teacher hums , lazed with his arms stretched over his desk . he seems much too comfortable for someone currently splayed over their own paperwork . " but , lucky for me , i don't really need one to teach the general course ! an easier way to get the students' attention would be nice , though . . . "
